Our History
Established October 1, 1971 by Larry L. Meador, Adesso is a family owned and operated machine shop.  David Meador took over the day to day operation of the business in 2000 and he runs the shop, while his wife Margie runs the office.  David has been with the company for 38 years and Margie for 16 years.  Their knowledge and experience is a valuable resource for many of Adesso's customers.  Whether you have design questions or are simply looking for hard to find material, David and Margie are here to help you in any way they can. 

David was born and raised in Norfolk and served his apprenticeship at Adesso.  Margie was born in Washington, D.C. and raised in northern Virginia.  She moved to Norfolk  in 1984 to attend Old Dominion University, where she earned her BA.  David and Margie were married in 1987 and have lived in Virginia Beach since 1990.



Adesso is an animal friendly business.  David and Margie often bring their dogs to work with them. Steve, the shop foreman, manages a colony of feral cats that reside on the property.  Their work with TNR (trap, neuter, and return) of feral cats began with the cats at Adesso.  The staff at Adesso has been involved with the TNR of several colonies around Norfolk.  They have also rescued and found homes for many kittens as well as a few homeless dogs and puppies.

Adesso's colony of feral cats is a well cared for colony. All of its members have been spayed or neutered and they all have been vaccinated. Please feel free to contact Margie if you would like more information on TNR.
